Wangjian2 years on Airbnbhttps://a0.muscache.com/im/pictures/user/User/original/52c05b8a-b762-44ab-a7e7-701d3a102f51.jpeg?im_w=2405July 2024I had an extraordinary stay at this old converted abbey right in front of Loch Ness! The castle is stunning, with a perfect blend of historic charm and modern comforts. Waking up to the breathtaking views of Loch Ness every morning was an unforgettable experience. The property was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed. The host was wonderful, providing great tips and ensuring our stay was perfect. I highly recommend this unique and enchanting property for an unforgettable getaway. Every penny worth the stay strong recommend !Highland Club ScotlandJuly 2024Thank you for your extraordinary review, Wangijan!

Joe2 years on Airbnbhttps://a0.muscache.com/im/pictures/user/1e6a604e-90df-4d7f-9378-7149b78ca65a.jpg?im_w=2405September 2023Delighted with our stay. The accommodation was extremely spacious, particularly the living room that had delightful views of the grounds and Loch Ness itself. Bedrooms and bathrooms were also very comfortable with plenty of space for storage.
Fort Augustus itself is picture postcard lovely. The Bothy Restaurant is well worth a visit and serves good food. Definitely take the boat tour up the Loch for some good photo opps.
We used the apartment as a base to get to the Isle of Skye for a two day trip (well worth it - two hours from Fort Augustus). We also had a great morning canoeing (courtesy of The Active Highs Team) and a good day out in Inverness where you can find the closest supermarkets. The walk along the banks of the River Ness is easy but lovely to do.
My one suggestion - the television is crying out for an upgrade. Luckily we brought an Amazon stick so were able to watch streaming TV during some of our down time but otherwise we would have been stuck with linear stations.
ShayneHuntington Beach, CaliforniaNone5July 2023Cozy and comfortable flat- just perfect for our family! There was nothing we would have changed about our stay. The kitchen and bathrooms were highly functional and felt upgraded throughout. Beds were great and we slept well. The amenities kept the kids busy and the adults relished the views. 5 stars!Highland Club ScotlandAugust 2023Hello Shayne. Thank you a lot for such a great review. It makes us be proud of our dedicated team and encourages us to keep up the hard work to continue delivering a 5 star service to all our guests. It was a pleasure to host you and your family in the abbey. We would love to see you back soon in The Highland Club. All the best, Luis G.
KristineBowie, MarylandNone5June 2023Really stunning - from our apartment to the beautiful loch and surrounding countryside. Plan on returning soon!
AnnetteBremerton, WashingtonNone5November 2022The Highland Club in Fort Augustus was fantastic. The apartment was perfectly appointed, views of the lake were amazing, and wandering the small local shops as well as other historical sites nearby made our stay perfect. We highly recommended and will be returning again.
NidiaMiami Beach, FloridaNone5July 2022My family of four stayed at the Monastery building in the Abbey for three wonderful days in July. The Abbey grounds are lovely and serene. Our two bedroom flat on the second floor was large, clean and very comfortable. The views of the lake from the living room were beautiful. You can take a boat cruise on Loch Ness steps outside the Abbey grounds. The Abbey is also conveniently located for taking driving trips to Urquhist castle ruins, Eilean Donan castle ruins, Inverness, Fort Williams, the Glencoe valley, and distilleries. We visited Tomatin distillery. If you take the road immediately to the left as you exit the Abbey gates, you will travel through lovely country pastures with loads of sheep in paddocks along the road. We also saw a herd of the hairy highland cows in a paddock right by the side of this country road. This road takes you to Tomatin distillery. In town, we ate at the Chinese restaurant and the cafe across from the Loch Ness boat cruise dock. It served great pizza. I highly recommend staying at the Abbey.
Brian7 years on AirbnbNone5November 2021No thanks.
Ashwini13 years on AirbnbNone5July 2021Great stay in a beautiful location, steeped in history and natural beauty. Super convenient location and access to Loch Ness is a few steps away from the flat. Highly recommend staying here to visit the highlands!
Mairead4 years on AirbnbNone5July 2021The apartments and facilities at the abbey are fantastic , really perfect for family/group holidays. As an extra bonus it is very close to the Caledonian canal cycle so you have approx 10 miles of very wide pathways perfect for family cycling . Fort Agustus is a beautiful little town with great gift and ice cream shops. For evening food check out Rokeby manor (approx 7 miles away) the restaurant is excellent with great kids menu.
